Subject: Re: TMP flaw in rackspace jclouds?
Take into account that the "statement" list will be rendered to a String,
composed with other script fragments into a final bash script, uploaded to
a node, and executed there locally as a bash script.
That code won't be executed in the machine running jclouds, but as a bash
script in the provisioned node, so the name of the temporal directory
should better be generated in the script itself. A good approach would be
to directly use the "mktemp"command.
